Sažetak

Generally, acquistion and collection development is one of the most important functions of any library. The aim of this study is to describe acquisition and collection development in academic libraries. Therefore, the academic librarians of the University of Zagreb were surveyed. The results of this study have shown that an active collection development is not being planned and implemented. Most libraries have not got a defined budget which serves for acquisition of library materials so that they depend on understanding by administrations of their institutions. That is also the reason why the acquisition is performed spontaneously, meeting the present demands and needs both of students and scientific (academic) teaching stuff.
